Disappointed Dragoon.

[Kolsykol]

Dancer partner seems like a prime candidate to model a potential dragonsight rework after.

Yeah this is what I've said too.
Having to target swap just feels weird, imo I also think that three buffs is too much.
Imo three buffs is just too much too, I actually do think that's a case of button bloat and I generally just fundamentally disagree with people complaining about bloat.
I think either Dragon Sight could be 60 sec and Lance Charge + Battle Litany could be merged or have Dragon Sight also do the AoE crit buff.

On top of it all you can also add Life Surge so that's basically four DPS cd's, Life of the Dragon is technically speaking a DPS cd too it's just activated with Geirskogul.
I don't think Life of the Dragon is rly comparable to Lance Charge for example but they're still tied to each other and it's when you've already got three other actual DPS cd's and then you start thinking about everything else.
You're popping so many cd's all the time.

I am all for DRG being all about ogcd's, but weaving too many DPS cd's just isn't fun imo.
I also hope they're delving deeper into the Jump niche and make Jumps feel more powerful.
Heck Jumps could even have the DPS cd built into it, Dragonfire Dive for example could activate Battle Litany ( it could have the crit chance or whatever damage buff built into it already ).
The Jumps are the big niche and appeal of DRG I think they should push that as the main event.

Dragoon hasn't been perfect for me since ARR...

Right now the core rotation is 11 buttons which for me doesn't flow well with controller/cross-hotbar, since I try to maintain the rotations to be 1-2-3-swap or 1-2-3-4-swap, but for DRG it's 1-2-3-4-swap-1-2-3-4-1-swap-repeat.

And then there is the eye mechanic which ends up distracting the combat.

its definitely true that DRG is pretty awkward to set up a comfortable hotbar with on controller

I pray it doesnt get the SMN treatment. I knew it was coming though. DRG is the only melee to not get some type of rework. Really wish they at least adjust right eye.

[Deveryn]

No one is getting SMN treatment because there are no malfunctioning pet classes!

Please don't respond again. I don't care for what you have to say, because it obvious you are looking to give a lecture to someone, and the lecture does not even apply.

I pointed out a trend. There is a history of SE making jobs watered down. If that hurts your feelings, that is your problem.

Yet their point is still sound. Folks need to WAIT. Folks here jump the gun way to much. And yes using teems like "entire playerbase" is kind of off. Folks pointing that out aren't always trying to lecture tbf

People are going to wait regardless, what people are worried about is the fact that they can spot an easily noticeable pattern and are lamenting. Not exactly 4D thinking here, lol.

We've been hearing that for years and the goalpost is constantly changing.
It's like waiting for a Dr. Appointment date only for it to be cancelled and rescheduled 6 more months away only for it to then be pushed back again another 3 months.
At some point, people are just going to give up and see a new Dr instead of waiting around forever.

It's natural to be wary when basically every other time they have "reworked" a job it's ended up a lobotomized mess of it's former self.

Again, judge it when we have the info. Worrying does nothing good for anyone. Once we know what's going on then we address it accordingly. Not exactly 4D thinking here, lol

You are right, basic patterns are rng if you think about it. :^)
